The workers are so super sweet, the people who run the place, or not very friendly, and the residents are kind and they love mom. I always recommend Solstice Senior Living to other families as well as A Place For Mom.

Terrific home, knowledgeable staff, very clean, beautiful gardens. My mother has lived there for over a year and is very happy and well cared for. Kindness is evident throughout this home. I would definitely recommend this home.
Lantern Crest Senior Living in Santee, CA
4.0
My loved one only stayed there for 4 nights. She had to move out as they couldn't offer the care they say she needed. I would like to see a better intake process for the residents. If that had been more thorough I think her care needs would have been expected.
